Book Price $0 : This Is A Milestone In Machine-assisted Microprocessor Verification. Gordon [20] And Hunt [32] Led The Way With Their Verifications Of Sim­ Ple Designs, Cohn [12, 13] Followed This With The Verification Of Parts Of The VIPER Microprocessor. This Work Illustrates How Much These, And Other, Pioneers Achieved In Developing Tractable Models, Scalable Tools, And A Robust Methodology. A Condensed Review Of Previous Re­ Search, Emphasising The Behavioural Model Underlying This Style Of Verification Is Followed By A Careful, And Remarkably Readable, Ac­ Count Of The SECD Architecture, Its Formalisation, And A Report On The Organisation And Execution Of The Automated Correctness Proof In HOL. This Monograph Reports On Graham's MSc Project, Demonstrat­ Ing That - In The Right Hands - The Tools And Methodology For Formal Verification Can (and Therefore Should?) Now Be Applied By Someone With Little Previous Expertise In Formal Methods, To Verify A Non-trivial Microprocessor In A Limited Timescale. This Is Not To Belittle Graham's Achievement; The Production Of This Proof, Work­ Ing As Graham Did From The Previous Literature, Goes Well Beyond A Typical MSc Project. The Achievement Is That, With This Exposition To Hand, An Engineer Tackling The Verification Of Similar Microprocessor Designs Will Have A Clear View Of The Milestones That Must Be Passed On The Way, And Of The Methods To Be Applied To Achieve Them.
